Description

System 8000 from Micro-Measurements is a versatile, precision data acquisition instrument system intended for static and dynamic test and measurement applications. The system includes a scanner with 8 channels of data acquisition. Each channel can be configured, via software, to accept signals from strain gages (strain gauges) or strain-gage-based transducers, thermocouples, or high level voltage sensors. Strain gage (strain gauge) channels accept full-, half-, or quarter-bridge configurations and have the required bridge completion components for 120-, 350-, and 1000- ohm bridges. The Model 8000-8-SM Scanner communicates with a host personal computer (PC) via an Ethernet connection. Micro-Measurements StrainSmart® software is optimal for configuring, controlling, and acquiring data from the System 8000.
